Hi All,
Just to state the obvious, I'm new to the forum. Just bought my first bike, Suzuki SV650. I've been wanting to try cycling out for a while, but until now haven't lived anywhere conducive to learning to ride (in other words, where I wouldn't kill myself trying).
I look forward to picking your brains.

Welcome to TMW! and welcome to riding.
Have you taken an MSF class yet? Highly recommended if not. Keep us posted on how you're doing.

Ah, forgot to put in the year. It's a 2000, but it only has 1010 miles on it, so practically brand new.
I took the MSF course about a month ago. Had to make sure that I was really interested enough in riding before I took the plunge and bought a bike.

Damn, mine's a 2005 and I've put about 3500 miles on that...But it's my daily vehicle. The wife drives our (her) car.
